Dataset for scanning electron microscopy based local fiber volume fraction analysis of non-crimp fabric glass fiber reinforced composites

SEM data sets, Matlab codes, and output from the local fiber volume fraction analysis from the publication:

Mortensen, U.A., Rasmussen, S., Mikkelsen, L.P., Fraisse, A., Andersen, T.L. The impact of the fibre volume fraction on the fatigue performance of glass fiber composites used in the wind turbine industry, Composites Part A, submitted Dec 2022.
